Post the OLDEST picture of your family! (No pic? tell us where they came from)

Post the OLDEST or oldest looking picture of your family members that you can find!



This one is from the late 1800's, early 1900's.
My father's side...

:sad: I don't have any here....but my parents have our family Bible that came over on the Mayflower.

That would be slick if you could scan some in and post. I scanned all of our family's old documents, just so we can reference them without disturbing the artifact. My great grandfather's "Workbook" is old and very fragile so it's not so smart to turn pages in it every time to look at it. Now we don't have to worry about destroying the documents when we want to see them.

My first relative came over because he defected from the French army Oh yah, great famil heritage to live up too...

I don't have any old pictures or documents, most of them we're destroyed when my grand-parents house was burned down

Earliest I have in my collection


[snickers]
No old picture, but apparantly we can trace our roots (on my dad's side) back to Zubulun Pike, of Pike's Peak...

Thats neat. You should go on a homage, visit Pike's Peak and tear it up!
Just be like "I'm family biatch" and spray some gravel.

Lol

that's actually a really good idea, but it's with my parents in Texas. Maybe when I go to visit them I'll swipe it and bring it back and do that.

i also have my great grandmother's certificate from when she graduated high school I believe....it may be middle school, I haven't looked in a while, but I know that's a turn of the century document.

I love antiques and history and stuff like that.

thats a fun ride... just make sure you have dirt tires...

oh and on my familys side.. I'll have to look but somewhere we have pics on CD...

ha, i was born and raised in the philippines until i was 3 then our family moved over here to the states for the first time all at once. We didnt even have a TV until we came here let alone any older family pics...
